WARNING NOTICE-SENSITIVE INTELLIGENCE SOURCES & METHODS INVOLVED

1. We understand from press accounts that Orlando Bosch,
WKSCARLET-3 and several other, Cuban exiles were recently arrested
and charged with the sabotage of a Cubana Airlines airliner on
6 October. After having read these accounts NOC Byron W.. GUTRADT
reported, for the record, that he once knew Bosch and WKSCARLET=3
in the early 1960's. ‘GUTRADT met WKSCARLET=3 in 1964 when both
were enrolled in OCS at Fort Benning, Georgia. GUTRADT at that
time had already terminated his relationship with BKHERALD.

While at OCS GUTRADT was not particularily close to WKSCARLET=3

- but WKSCARLET-3 was generally knowledgeable cf GUTRADT's back-

ground and past BKHERALD activities. GUTRADT has not seen

WKSCARLET-3 since 1964 after completion of the OCS course and

doukts seriously that WKSCARLET-3 would rermernber him,

: 2. GUTRADT met Bosch circa 1963 in Miami when GUTRADT was
training Bosch in a BKHERALD-sponsored procrar. Bosch only knew
GUTRACT in alias. GUTRADT has not seen Bosch since completion

of this training.

3. Given the length of time that has elapsed plus the lack
of closeness to either WKSCARLET~3 or Boesch, GUTRADT and the
Station do not believe that their knowledge cf his past BKHERALD
activities presents any security preblems today. GUTRADT, of
course, was unwitting of their alleged current activities and
was surprised to hear of the horbing of the Cubana airliner.

continuing the contact beyond date of that decision in 1974
Was to resolve certain outstanding federal income tax mat-

as possible. Because Posada had < high local profile, we
waited for his periodic non- “scheduled call-ins to reccive
and convey any news concerning tax matters.

4. Contacts with hin subsequent to February 1976
were at Posada'’s own initiative (except as indicated below)
and were for the purpose of volunteering information on
Significant cxile extremist plans, to sclicit aid for re-

i tention of his resident aticn status, and fer help in

: obtaining U.S. visitors visas for self and family. Posada

was not tasked to provide information beyond specifics of
